Write lyrics that sing

Beginner5 min6 steps

The Lyrics card is where the words of your song live. Leave it empty and Vocals writes them; type in it and your words are sung as you wrote them.

Step 1 of 6
  1. Type your lyrics in the Lyrics card. Use words you wrote or may use: they are sung as written.

  2. Put [Verse] and [Chorus] on their own lines to say where each part starts. It’s optional, but the song follows them.

  3. The wand writes words from your description. Rewrite any line you like: what is in the box is what gets sung.

  4. The page button opens My lyrics: pick words you saved and they go in at the cursor.

  5. The Singer chip goes Any, Male, Female, then your own voices if you recorded one.

  6. Tick Instrumental for a song without singing.

Pro tips

  • Short lines sing better than long ones. Aim for lines you could clap to.
  • Repeat the chorus word for word: repetition is what makes a hook stick.
  • Keep half-finished verses in My lyrics (Library): they are saved as you type.
